Modalities
My coaching is multidimensional, not limited to a single methodology.
When I first saw a demo of coaching, it was utter magic to me. As Arthur C. Clarke says, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”
In front of a live audience, Mai Vu – who would become my first coaching trainer – guided a sample client through a profound breakthrough in her love life and her entire identity in just 15 minutes.
At the time, I was working as a design consultant and was feeling increasingly burned out. When I saw Mai work, it ignited a desire in me to learn and master whatever magic she was performing. I followed this passion into a new profession.
As an avid learner, I never stopped learning. I continued to absorb one modality after the next, applying it in my own life and with my clients, then discovering the next frontier that seemed like magic until I learned it and reverse-engineered it.
Of course, I also used what I had learned before becoming a coach and other life experiences I was having as I was learning to coach. I could bring it all to create ever more powerful results for my clients in a uniquely Peter way.
When I coach now, I'm simultaneously looking through all of the following lenses – and many more – to offer the insight you need in a situation to see things in a whole new way.
The way I seamlessly weave these modalities together is the secret behind the extraordinary results I get with clients and the depth and enjoyment of the journey we take together.
